TECHNICAL FIELD

The present invention relates to the field of lighting control, inparticular to a light-emitting diode light string control system.

BACKGROUND

Light-emitting diode light strings are widely used by users on buildingexteriors, trees, signboards, and landscapes to add aesthetic appeal. Atpresent, it can be roughly divided into two types of connection methods:series connection and parallel connection. The series light-emittingdiode light string connects a plurality of light-emitting diodes inseries. Although the series connection method makes the light-emittingdiode light string module easy to be produced, failure of onelight-emitting diodes will not enable the electric current to betransmitted during use, so that the entire diode light string cannot belit. Parallel light-emitting diode light strings are a combination ofmultiple light-emitting diodes connected in parallel. Eachlight-emitting diode light string has several light-emitting diodes. Inorder to achieve the synchronization, asynchronous or point controleffect of the light-emitting diode light strings, each light-emittingdiode connected to the light-emitting diode light string will be made tohave one address coding, and each light-emitting diode must have acontrol line and an address line to control it. If 10 light-emittingdiodes are connected in parallel, 10 control lines and 10 address linesmust be used to control the 10 light-emitting diodes. The greater thenumber of light-emitting diodes connected in parallel, the more thecontrol lines and address lines, resulting in complicated circuits,difficult to manufacture, and high cost.

Chinese patent for invention 201510402773.7 discloses a light-emittingdiode light string control system. The light-emitting diode drivingdevice includes a switching unit, a control unit and a voltage levelgenerating unit. The switching unit is electrically connected to thelight-emitting diode light string and the control unit. The voltagelevel generating unit is electrically connected to the output end of thelight-emitting diode driving device and the light-emitting diode lightstring. The Zener diode ZD of the voltage level generating unit isconnected in parallel with the capacitor C. The cathodes of the Zenerdiode ZD connected in series with the resistor R5 are connected to therectified input end by the alternating current power supply and theanode of the series diode D, respectively, then electrically connectedwith the light-emitting diode light string. The anode of the Zener diodeZD is grounded, and the Zener diode ZD determines the output voltagevalue of the voltage level generating unit. When the output voltage ofthe voltage level generating unit is not high, such as 3 to 6v, thereare fewer zener diodes that meet the requirements, and zener diodesbelow 6V belong to zener breakdown, and the voltage stabilizingcharacteristics are not as good as avalanche breakdown. When ashort-circuit fault occurs in a series light-emitting diode lightstring, the line current increases, and it is easy to burn out thelight-emitting diode light string and the power supply, there is even adangerous situation of fire, which will cause a potential safety hazard.Current light-emitting diode light string is usually provided with ashort-circuit protection circuits at the output end, but theshort-circuit protection circuits are more complicated and require morecomponents. Although the potential safety hazard can be avoided, whenthe short-circuit fault of the light string is resolved, thelight-emitting diode light string control system cannot resume normaloperation by itself, it can only be abandoned, which cause waste ofresources.

The input end of the voltage stabilizingcircuit is connected to a DC power supply VDD, and the output end isconnected to the power supply end of the microprocessor. The voltagestabilizing circuit is used to convert the DC power supply VDD to theworking voltage of the microprocessor. The switching unit 4 is aP-channel enhanced field effect transistor Q1.

In other embodiments, since the port connected thecontrol unit 5 and the short-circuit protection unit 2 is automaticallyat high level when there is no signal input, the collector can bedirectly connected to the control unit 5 without connecting the secondresistance R2 and the DC power supply VDD; when the transistor Q2 is cutoff, the short-circuit protection unit 2 does not output a signal to thecontrol unit 5. The wireless receiving unit 9 includes a voltagestabilizing chip and a wireless receiving chip. The voltage stabilizingchip is connected to a DC power source VDD for converting the DC powersource VDD into a working voltage of the wireless receiving chip. Thevoltage stabilizing chip is connected to the power supply end of thewireless receiving chip. The output end of the wireless receiving chipis connected to the control unit 5, and the input end of the wirelessreceiving chip receives wireless signals from an external remotecontrol.

The working principle of the light-emitting diode light string controlsystem 6 is:

1. When the power is turned on, the wireless receiving unit 9 receivesan external wireless signal with a light-emitting pattern coding sent bythe external remote control, and converts the wireless signal into acontrol signal of the control unit 5 and sends it to the control unit 5.

2. The DC power source VDD turns on the light-emitting diode LED1through the first resistance R1; the DC power source VDD supplies powerto the control unit 5; when no light-emitting pulse signal is to betransmitted, the control unit 5 sends a low level to the gate of thefield effect transistor Q1, thus the gate potential of the field effecttransistor Q1 is low, while the source potential is high, so that thefield effect transistor Q1 is turned on, its drain potential is higherthan the anode potential of the diode D1, the diode D1 is cut off, andthe current flows from DC power source VDD to the light-emitting diodelight string 1 through the source and drain of the field-effecttransistor Q1, and the direct-current power supply with the firstvoltage supplies power to the light-emitting diode light string 1, anddrives the light-emitting diode light string 1 to emit light.

3. When the control unit 5 sends a light-emitting pulse signal composedof several low and high levels, and the control unit 5 sends a highlevel to the gate of the field effect transistor Q1, the gate potentialof the field effect transistor Q1 is high, the source potential is alsohigh, and the voltage difference between the gate and source is lessthan 2V. Therefore, the field effect transistor Q1 is cut off, its drainpotential is pulled down, and the drain potential is lower than theanode potential of the diode D1, so that the diode D1 is turned on, andcurrent flows from the DC power source VDD to the light-emitting diodelight string 1 through the first resistance R1 and the diode D1, and theDC power source having the second voltage supplies power to thelight-emitting diode light string 1; the continuous opening and closingactions of the field effect transistor Q1 is controlled by the controlunit 5 to form a light-emitting control command having a plurality offirst voltages or second voltages, and the light-emitting controlcommand is output to an electrically connected light-emitting diodelight string 1, the light-emitting diode light string 1 receives thelight-emitting control command and performs the corresponding lightemission change.

4. When the light-emitting diode light string 1 works normally, thefield effect transistor Q1 is turned on, and the current flowing throughthe third resistance R3 is less than 300 MA. The voltage at the cathodeend of the light-emitting diode light string 1 is about 0.225V, and theturn-on voltage V_(BE) of the transistor Q2 is about 0.5V, and thevoltage difference between the base level of the transistor Q2 and theemitter is less than 0.225V, which is even smaller than the turn-onvoltage of the transistor Q2. Therefore, the transistor Q2 is in the cutoff state, and the current flows from the DC power source VDD throughthe second resistor R2 to the control unit 5. The control unit 5receives the high-level of first protection signal, and the control unit5 controls the opening and closing actions of the field effecttransistor Q1 according to the light-emitting pulse signal. When alight-emitting diode in the light-emitting diode light string 1 isshort-circuited, the DC power source VDD is connected to the cathode endof the light-emitting diode light string 1 through the turned-on fieldeffect transistor Q1, that is, the end of the third resistance R3, thepotential of the third resistance R3 is increased, the voltage value isequal to the first voltage. The turn-on voltage V_(BE) of the transistorQ2 is a critical value. When the voltage at the cathode end is greaterthan the turn-on voltage V_(BE) of the transistor Q2, the voltagedifference between the base level of the transistor Q2 and the emitteris much larger than 0.5V, thus the transistor Q2 is turned on, and theDC power source VDD is grounded through the second resistance R2, thecollector and the emitter of the transistor Q2. The control unit 5receives a low level of second protection signal, and once the controlunit 5 receives a low level, the field effect transistor Q1 iscontrolled to cut off. At this time, the light-emitting diode lightstring 1 does not emit light, and the light-emitting pulse signal of thecontrol unit 5 cannot generate a light-emitting control command throughthe switching unit 4 to send to the light-emitting diode. Thelight-emitting diode light string control system 6 enters theshort-circuit protection state to prevent the light-emitting diode lightstring 1 from being burned out when it is connected to a higher firstvoltage for a longer time, to achieve the protection of light string,and the light-emitting diode LED1 in the second power generating unitdoes not emit light, playing a role of prompting short-circuit fault.After the control unit 5 receives the low level of the second protectionsignal, the field effect transistor Q1 is controlled to cut off, and thefield effect transistor Q1 is controlled to be turned on again after adelay predetermined time. If the light-emitting diode light string 1 isstill short-circuited, the transistor Q2 is turned on, and the controlunit 5 quickly controls the field effect transistor Q1 to turn off afterreceiving the low level again. The control unit 5 controls the fieldeffect transistor Q1 to turn on again after an interval predeterminedtime T, and repeats the cycle according to the above process until thefault is removed and the transistor Q3 is cut off. The removing of theshort-circuit fault is monitored in real-time, and the turn-on time ofthe field effect transistor Q1 is very short, which can prevent thelight-emitting diode light string 1 from burning out. When theshort-circuit fault is removed, the light-emitting diode light string 1works normally, the DC power source having the first voltage suppliespower to the light-emitting diode light string 1, the voltage at thecathode end of the light-emitting diode light string 1 is pulled down,and the current flowing through the third resistance R3 becomes smaller,which is smaller than 300 MA. The voltage at the cathode is less than0.225V, and it is also smaller than the turn-on voltage V_(BE) of thetransistor Q2. Therefore, the voltage difference between the base levelof the transistor Q2 and the emitter is smaller than the turn-on voltageof the transistor Q2, and the transistor Q2 is cut off. The currentflows from the DC power source VDD through the second resistor R2 to thecontrol unit 5. The control unit 5 receives the high-level of firstprotection signal, and the control unit 5 controls the opening andclosing actions of the field effect transistor Q1 according to thelight-emitting pulse signal, and the light-emitting diode light stringcontrol system 6 automatically resumes normal operation.

According to the present invention, the light-emitting control commandsent by the control unit 5 is loaded on the power line of thelight-emitting diode light string 1 through a carrier wave mode torealize the driving of the brightness variation of the light-emittingdiode light string 1, which enables several parallel light-emittingdiodes to be synchronized or asynchronous operation without configuringadditional signal transmission lines, it saves costs and simplifies thecontrol circuit of the light-emitting diode light string 1.

The short-circuit protection unit 2 of the present invention detectswhether the light-emitting diode is short-circuited in real time, hasfast response rate to the protection of the light-emitting diode lightstring 1 when it is short-circuited. Once a short-circuit fault isdetected, the short-circuit protection unit 2 sends a low-level secondprotection signal to the control unit 5. The control unit 5 controls theswitching unit 4 to cut off, and the light-emitting diode light string 1is disconnected from the DC power supply with the first voltage in time,protecting the remaining light-emitting diodes and power supply units 7,thereby reducing maintenance costs and economic losses; when theshort-circuit fault is removed, the light-emitting diode light stringcontrol system 3 can automatically resume normal operation, reducing themaintenance work and improving the resource utilization rate. Theshort-circuit protection unit 2 can be realized using only needs onetransistor and two resistances, the circuit is simple, fewer componentsare needed, and is easy to implement. The present invention can becontrolled remotely and can freely adjust the brightness, color andlight emission change of the light-emitting diode light string 1.
